Android N finally gets its name

If you were wondering what to call Android N, you need wonder no longer. Google has announced the winning candidate in the pick-a-name competition for the next version of the Android operating system—and it isn’t “Namey McNameface.” Though from the way some corners of the Internet are reacting, it might as well have been.

But for all of that, Android Nougat by any other name would definitely taste as sweet. It’s been working just fine on my Nexus 6 phone, and I’m looking forward to seeing what further changes are in the offing.
